Dying PUL???

[gremily]

I'm thinking of trying to dye some white PUL covers, but I'm not sure if it's possible. Would it work? I've got BB's white pul, but I don't want to try to dye them if they're going to turn out horribly wrong;) seeing as they're not overly cheap.

I don't think it would go horribly wrong so long as you make sure you have plenty of room to swish the covers around and you don't make the water too hot. I don't think you'll get very dark colours though, if the dye takes at all, since most dyes require high temps to set them.

I've only had one experience dyeing covers (unintentionally!!) and the BB cover picked up some pale colour on the edging, but not the main cover. Looks kind of cool though! I'm pretty sure my Bummis was in the same water and it didn't take any dye at all.

HTH.

That's what I was thinking, Tea lady. The elastic on the edge is sure to dye, but I'm just not sure about the pul, as it's basically a plastic (right?).
